This school was everything I never imagined, I learned things that I never new I had interest in. The staff believed in me more then I did in myself! This is the best risk I have ever taken, and will always remember my first day like it was yesterday. Thank you to everyone that made it happen. I highly recommend this school to anyone that has passion for the artistry. I love my L makeup institute!

I would have never been able to get the kind of training anywhere else that caters to my needs as a person. The small class sizes, products and teachers that are stars in their fields make a great learning environment. I have no doubt that I'll be back to take any new courses that become available in the future.
